Judge Upholds 7.3 Million Award In Implant Suit
A federal judge upheld a 7.3 million verdict for Mariann Hopkins whose silicone breast implant ruptured. Dow Corning faced a new-trial bid and argued evidence failed to prove silicone caused her immune disorder. The ruling preserves the largest breast implant case award to date and prompts further action before an appeal. Hopkins, 48, from Sebastopol, had silicone-gel implants in 1977 after reconstructive surgery.
